The aim of the Columna Collective Foundation Group Invest is to ensure that you and your employees can maintain the same living standards in retirement. To this end, the Board of Trustees makes use of the opportunities presented by the capital markets, applying a differentiated investment strategy through the two sub-strategies “Mandatory” and “Extra-mandatory”. These form the basis of the interest model.
Extra-mandatory retirement assets tend to enjoy a higher rate of interest. This means there is a prospect of earning a higher level of interest, which in turn leads to higher retirement benefits for insured members.
"With two investment strategies, we offer our customers security coupled with the prospects of higher interest – so that they can maintain their accustomed standard of living in retirement.”
The Board of Trustees is the highest governing body and carries responsibility for the Columna Collective Foundation Group Invest. It determines and monitors the strategy, is responsible for managing the investments, and also ensures the Foundation's sustainable development and independence. The prime focus is its obligations to beneficiaries.
The Board of Trustees has entrusted AXA Life Ltd with the management of the Foundation. AXA Life Ltd is responsible for operational management as well as distribution, and guarantees direct and transparent communication with beneficiaries and companies.
